Pick me up Been bleeding too long Right here, right now I'll stop it some how I will make it go away Can't be here no more Seems this is the only way I will soon be gone These feelings will be gone These feelings will be gone Now I see the times they change Leaving doesn't seems so strange I am hoping I can find Where to leave my hurt behind All this shit I seem to take All alone I seem to break I have lived the best I can Does this make me not a man? Shut me off I am ready, Heart stops I stand alone Can't be on my own I will make it go away Can't be here no more Seems this is the only way I will soon be gone These feelings will be gone These feelings will be gone Now I see the times they change Leaving doesn't seems so strange I am hoping I can find Where to leave my hurt behind All this shit I seem to take All alone I seem to break I have lived the best I can Does this make me not a man? Am I going to leave this place? What is it I'm hanging from? Is there nothing more to come? (am I gonna leave this place?) Is it always black in space? Am I going to take it's place? Am I going to leave this race? (Am I going to leave this race?) I guess god's up in this place? What is it that I've become? Is there something more to come? (more to come) Now I see the times they change Leaving doesn't seems so strange I am hoping I can find Where to leave my hurt behind All this shit I seem to take All alone I seem to break I have lived the best I can Does this make me not a man? Does this make me not a man?
